Revit Saving Issues

We have been getting lots of messages about people having issues saving their Revit projects; Autodesk released a hotfix for this in the Autodesk Desktop Manager. You can download this, and the issue will most likely be resolved!

Spring break

The holiday is finally here, even for us. Between teaching weeks 2.10 and 3.1 (1 to 7 February) @Hok will be completely closed, also for online help. Please do not break your laptop during this week. After the holiday we are available again for all your software and computer related problems. Enjoy your holiday!

Adhok remains closed

As part of the new measures against the corona virus @Hok is closed until at least 18 January.

Support

We will remain to provide support as best as possible under the circumstances.

You can contact us by chat, e-mail and the Self Service Portal (see below), for questions regarding installing, configuring and the use of software, online TU services, BK Renderfarm and other ICT related questions.

Manuals

You are encouraged to try to solve your problem with the help of manuals offered by TU Delft and @Hok.

Software

Are you looking for software you need to work at home? Different sources are available to obtain software (free and with discount). The most important once are listed here.

Hardware

In urgent cases we are able to provide some limited hardware support. Without an appointment we cannot help you. Please contact us to make an appointment and to check whether we actually can help you.
Some examples of help we can provide:

  • Make a backup of your personal data, because your Windows stopped working and Windows needs to be installed and you do not want to loose your personal data.
  • Recover your lost data.
  • Limited diagnostics of your faulty laptop.

Do not come if you have a cold, cough, sore throat or fever. Send a friend or cancel the appointment.

Happy holidays!

Adhok and our online chat is closed from Monday 21 December 2020 until Friday 31 December 2020. We are available again from Monday 4 January 2021.

Stay healthy, enjoy your Christmas holiday and New Year!

Working with Mac

The Mac versions below are supported within TU Delft:

  • OS X 10.15 macOS Catalina
  • OS X 10.14 macOS Mojave
  • OS X 10.13 macOS High Sierra

On 12 November 2020 Apple released macOS Big Sur (11.0).  SSC-ICT advices to not install this update as various applications need to be tested.  When this is done, we will let you know.

Enscape Licenses

When you are in need of an enscape license, use the link below:

https://enscape3d.com/educational-license/

If you still have not received your license key after a while, something else might be wrong! What seems to happen quite often is that people forget to tick the box that’s asking you if you want to receive emails from enscape; if you don’t, they cannot send you the email with the license.

To fix this:

  • Go back to this link: https://enscape3d.com/educational-license/
  • Type in your (educational) email address
  • A link will appear saying ‘click here to get an email and opt back in’
  • Click this link
  • Go to your mailbox; there should be an email there, where you can confirm your opt in for the emails
  • Request another license, and it will soon appear in your mailbox

Massive network interruptions

It is not possible to connect to eduroam and wired network.

TU services that are interrupted:

  • Brightspace
  • Citrix/Weblogin
  • Skype for Bussines
  • Sharepoint
  • Webdata
  • Webmail/Outlook
  • and perhaps more…

ICT is working to resolve the issues. Our apologies for the inconvenience.

UPDATE 11:17 Some service are getting back online.
UPDATE 11:21 All services are back online.
